Oh yes... So when they are 20, their father will be 75... and when they are 30, their father will be 85 or dead. Very awesome!

It's awesome to have kids...by 20 they are adults, if they still need their dad that bad by that age; he failed as a father.

Parents are always missed, but they all die one day.

That's awesome.

They sure think so! They're loving having the twins right now and luckily they're both in great health. My dad hiked rim to rim with me in the grand canyon 2 years ago and did just as well as I did. Having the young kids isn't going to delay their retirement, they could retire tomorrow if they wanted.

hope she wasn't in Denver last month.

I would think most people were joking, but with you it's completely possible.

It's better to have have a great dad for 20 or 30 years than a lousy one for a lifetime. My dad is a very good father, they'll do just fine.

How exactly was this kid a surprise?
Condom broke? Antibiotics used during birth control? You sure it's your kid?

Birth control isn't 100%. We have a whole fucking brain trust on here. Jesus Christ.

Kid wasn't planned. Birth control failed. Pregnant. Surprise. Not really uncommon and hard to comprehend.

Just found out my wife is pregnant. We have two kids that are soon to be 9 and 6... we are both 31. Didn't really plan on this but overall it isn't a bad thing...could be worse, right? I was hoping to retire in 12 years when my kiddos graduated high school...seems as though I will have to push that back a little.

Anyone else have surprise kids late in their marriage?

Wife and I had kid #1 when we were both 32, and kid #2 at 35. We have lots of friends who started having kids in their late 30s. So you are still fairly yound, IMO.

Kids are great, but they do force you to put them before you. I definitely understanf how another 6 years would be a tough pill to swallow, especially if you were not planning on kid #3.

NOthing wrong with having older parents. My dad was born in 1933 and had me when he was 44. He is almost 80 now, but I wouldn't trade my time with him for anything. His life story is frickin amazing. He has the most incredible stories about WWII.

I already asked her that. Apparently she is pretty sure it is.
Also, as a note, when your wife is having a breakdown about being pregnant, not a good time to ask that question...

You mean you let your wife fuck other guys? D:

You're forgetting that you're on ATOT...

Also, get snipped so this won't happen to you again. It's the only way to be sure.

Yah...was thinking about having her get a tubal ligation. I dunno... I do work for pretty much every physician office in town...would be weird to get it snipped locally since I already have a professional relationship with the docs that do it.

Grats. Where's SunnyD?

I was 37 when mine was born. My buddy that just went back to the sand has a 1 year old. He's 47.

Maybe you should try a home procedure. It involves removing your microwave door though. D:

1945-1933 = 12
